Thats what makes Heaven not so good for comparisons...everyone need to run it with the same settings to properly compare.

EDIT: sorry you were probably looking "Phill vs OP"...the minimum FPS is very misleading....sometimes for some reason it will give a very low number and other times that can jump up by 15 FPS....I've seen a minimum as low as 12 FPS with SLi 480's...a run later its 35 FPS...

Curious as to why the stock speed system with slower video cards can rock a noticeably higher minimum fps. (@Philll).

The settings look the same as the OP's.

Often I find that the heaven benchmark reports such despite the fact that while watching it take place the lowest I saw was ~60 fps. It does not concern me though bc from pass the total number of frames remains within tolerance. However it would be nice if the min frames did not act up... bc honestly that is one of the most important points to compare. :(

I think heaven is an ok benchmark to compare just so long as the same settings are used. In that way I do not think it is any different then vantage or any other benchie.

@rjbarker, may I ask why you posted a benchie at a res that the OP and many others cannot compare with? Why didn't you use the same setting as the OP?
